Tokyo, Apr. 5.
Indian Yogi, said to take their naps lon needle-studded chaise-longues, were: put to shame by a Shanghai businessman who, according to Kobe Customs officials, managed to make his trip here on a berth in whose covers were hidden no less than 5.300 razor blades.
Probably in order to offset the risk of being cut, this man was also found to be padded with 53 hundred-yeü notes, 22 woollen skirts and three pocket watches. In his trunks were found 70 varieties of coconuts, butter us, cocoa, coffee and other provisions.
The alleged smuggler, who reached Kobe on the Taiyo Maru on March 15, is said to be a former Russian naturalized German who operates a confectionery shop in the French Concession in Shanghai. The provisions he brought with him are said io be sufficient to stock a shop.—Havas.
